What Causes Vaginal Spotting After Gall Bladder Removal?

I had gall bladder removal laparoscopy done on Dec 15, on depo shot for birth control. Had a new shot on Dec 12. Day of surgery I was lightly spotting. Hadn t had a period in 2 months. On Dec 28 I stood up and had a major gush of blood and clots that soaked my clothing. Again on Jan 15 and twice after. It is a huge amount of blood and after I can soak a pad in less then an hour. Sometimes it goes away - this last time for 3 days. Sometimes heavy sometimes not. On the 15 and 17 huge clots. Is this related to surgery. Why so much bleeding on depo
